This class was tough.

Course Overview:

This class was very interesting. I liked the content, but the hybrid class format wasn't the best for me. It was too much information to learn on my own. But other people liked the format. You have to choose classes that work best for you.

Course highlights:

I liked the applicable examples given during the actual lectures, they made the concepts easier to remember and applicable to real life.

Hours per week:

6-8 hours

Advice for students:

Go to the Supplemental Instruction sessions, they really are lifesavers. I wish I had gone earlier in the semester, which would have helped me get a higher grade.
